RISC OS Open administration

RE: RISC OS Open administration

Bounties states “[…] the developer(s) will be paid the amount that the community donated to that bounty item.” I’m just wondering whether there will be any significant overhead concerned with online transactions, etc. If so, is this to be mopped up by the admin fund or will the amount paid to the developer be subject to a small percentage reduction?

There will be a small handling fee taken by PayPal (or the like) after the donation is made to us but we’ll hide that so the full amount donated is what gets added to the pot. Basically, we’ll cover this deduction out of our ROOL account (which is bumped up by the admin pot).

As for the payment to the developer when they successfully complete their bounty, that all depends upon their preferred method of payment. So it’ll be between us and them.
